Omega Electrical and Audio Help / Re: Omega B 2002 RCA cable wiring

« on: 05 September 2024, 12:56:44 »

Some more info: I snapped the rca cable because it went somewhere it shouldn't have (between some panels) and I couldn't get it out anymore.
As for the connectors on the center panel - they are very confusing to me as most of them don't really have any visible clips but yet they do not move outwards one bit

Omega Electrical and Audio Help / Omega B 2002 RCA cable wiring

« on: 05 September 2024, 09:07:18 »

Hello all,

I have run into some trouble with trying to route RCA cables to the radio cage.
I started by removing the NCDC 2015 radio and the panel with climate controls, traction control button and hazard lights button but I struggled with removing the connectors from the latter and getting better access to the radio cage.
I do have a LHD car and I tried poking the rca cables through a hole near the driver's side panel on the right but the cable got stuck somewhere and now I have an RCA connector ripped off and stuck inside my car 

I also asked this on the German forums but yet no luck.
Has anyone done this operation before and could share some tips and tricks with the cable routing?

Unfortunately adding an aux won't suffice for me since I have an android head unit laying around and I wish to utilize it.
However I have found a pretty comprehensive tutorial on youtube about tapping into the CAN-bus via the OBD port with some python code and detecting packets for certain functions in the car. And the example is done on an Opel 
I can share the link if anyone else is interested.

Thank You for the reply!
Sounds like a sad situation since parts in my area are sparse and access to tech2 is quite difficult to achieve.
I might look into taking up a project of using an arduino to manipulate the CAN-low and CAN-high signals to control the CID but until then I am going without trip computer data.

Omega Electrical and Audio Help / NCDC 2015 + CID aftermarket upgrade question

« on: 29 August 2024, 07:00:28 »

Hello all
I have got a question about upgrading the audio in my 2002 Omega (Opel variant)
Currently I have the NCDC 2015 radio with CID and buttons on the steering wheel (non-bose).
Question is - if I were to upgrade the radio to an aftermarket option, do I need a canbus decoder like connects2 or can I just use an ISO adapter and give up steering wheel controls? I just wish that the trip computer data could still be displayed.

Cheers for any information!
